Too won an all-expense paid trip for him and friend to fly to the UK to watch Celtic FC vs Patrick Thistle at Celtic park (Scotland) on the 25thNovember 2017 and Burnley vs Arsenal at Turf Moor on the 26th of November 2017.

Mr. Too emerged top in the Live draw conducted by Dafabet ambassador Maina Kageni and a representative from the BCLB on Wednesday 4th October 2017. The draw was broadcasted live on Dafabet’s official facebook page.

Too barely held his excitement when Dafabet informed him they would be visiting his residence at Zimmerman Estate, Nairobi.

The 27-year-old bachelor, who hails from Kericho, is a trained accountant who currently workings as a part time teacher at a local secondary school. Ben was forced to join the teaching profession to make ends meet as he could not find any employment in his field of expertise. He enjoys his work as a secondary school teacher because he is able to spread knowledge and shape young minds directly, even though he still dreams of being employed as an accountant.

Bernard was introduced to Dafabet 7 months ago by his friend Patrick Langat whom he has chosen to accompany him in the dream trip to UK. Ben first heard of the #TwendeGame promo mid-August and decided to throw his hat in the ring. Though a regular punter on www.dafabet.co.ke he had zero thoughts of victory on this particular promo because he hadn’t won anything substantial before. This did not stop him from dreaming and daring. He placed his bets and hoped. And he finally struck gold in TwendeGame promo.

Bernard supports Tottenham FC in the English Premier League, he was drawn closer to Spurs by home boy Victor Wanyama. Locally he supports the mighty K’ogalo (Gor Mahia).

Ben’s favorite sport is athletics, he used to run in competitions in his high school and campus. He joined Dafabet because it’s the only gaming company that offers athletic betting. Ben says betting in athletics is the only sure bets he considers.

When asked about his thought on #TwendeGame promo, Bernard candidly revealed that he had his sights on #ChapChap jackpot, but stated that he was more than grateful to have been selected as the promo winner. He has never been out of the country before and sees his victory as heaven sent.

Bernard and Patrick’s trip itinerary includes city tours, stadium tours, site seeing, and V.I.P treatment during the live games. They will be accompanied by Dafabet ambassador Maina Kageni.
